New Ride 1965 Wagon

[quik9r]

Thought I would post a picture of my new ride, 1965 Impala wagon 396 turbo 400 with factory A/C, tinted glass, PS, power rear window and protecto plate. We drove car home from Athens Georgia to Burlington Ont. and we got almost 20 mpg. The car is really original, missing correct carb and orig rims. Anyone out there with info about production numbers on 65 wagons please post info or send pm to me. Thanks in advance.

If you don't like those rims, sell them to me!

Exactly the style I'm after for my 59 El Camino.

You keep the tires, they're too tall and you need them for your original type rims.

I like the rims, they are amercian racing, torque thrust.

Nice find and neato! A wagon with all the candy.

I like the 20 mpg best. That would put alot of new vehicles to shame.

Hey Kevin

Great find! The 65's have to be one of the nicest wagons (and full size cars) that Chevy produced.bang

The wheels are perfect.

Thanks guys for the thumbs up, I have wanted a wagon for a long time, and missed three years ago on a 62 project wagon. The 62 is the one I prefer, but this 65 has me intrigued and its time to jump into a different year/ model and learn new stuff. I will keep you posted on the progress. The wagon may end up pulling the 9er to the pure stock drags in Michigan!:eek:
